“He’s had a 10-to-1 money advantage,” Santorum said of Romney. “He’s had all the organizational advantages. He has Fox News shilling for him every day, no offense Brian, but I see it. And yet, he can’t seal the deal because he just doesn’t have the goods to be able to motivate the Republican base to win this election.”

Host Brian Kilmeade, who is also a co-host of the “Fox and Friends” morning show on the cable network, objected to Santorum’s suggestion that Fox News — the dominant source of television news for conservative viewers — is biased toward Romney.
